1953 Ford F-100 pickup truck

This truck is all steel.  The top has been chopped 3 inches.  It has a Chevy small block 350 blower motor with a B&M supercharger.  The drive train is from a 70’s era Chevy Nova or Camaro.  The transmission is a 700R4 and a 10 bolt rear end.  The tires are new.  Has power windows and door poppers.  This is a really good driving truck.  The engine and transmission are trouble free to the best of my knowledge. 

I acquired this truck last year and know very little about it.  We have worked on it tweaking some of the problems we observed such as tires, battery, replacement door poppers, rebuilt the alternator.

The truck is painted PEPTO BISMOL PINK inside and out.  This truck was built locally around 15 to 20 years ago.  I believe the gentleman who built it also built a 53 Ford panel truck and painted it the same.  He has since passed away.

I have decided to sell off a lot of “gear head stuff” as I am getting too old and tired to fool with all this anymore and I just don’t seem to have enough time.  I also have a 36 Chevy Sedan Delivery, a couple of Yamaha Wave Runners and a 78 Malibu with a big block I am planning on selling soon.

That is all I really know about the truck.  It is a nice truck and it would cost a fortune to build it the way it is built.  People either love or hate the color.  It has ghost flames on the sides of the front fenders that you may not see in the photos.

I have never sold anything on Ebay before although I have been a buyer for 10+ years.

If you buy this truck it is what is, as is, where is.  I have a perfect rating score on Ebay and want to keep it that way.  If you buy it I require NON-REFUNDABLE  $500.00 deposit via Paypal within 72 hours of the auction ending and arrangements to pick up the truck within 10 days of receipt of the deposit.  The remainder is to be paid in cash.  I understand there are a lot of shady deals with payments and I do not want to be taken advantage of.

The information provided is not warranted.  Some information is assumed as passed along from hear say and some I have deducted from my observations.  I am trying to be as honest as possible regarding what I am describing the truck as being and as to how it is equipped.

If you have any questions I will do my best to answer them as time permits.

It is possible I may withdraw this truck from the auction if I get a response from word of mouth regarding its being for sale.  A lot of people I know and that have heard about it would love to have it but do not have the funds or can not justify purchasing it.

The $500.00 deposit is not refundable.

Thanks for your time!

2015 Ford Focus sedan shows its fresh face in New York

Wed, 16 Apr 2014

That handsome fellow you see above is the 2015 Ford Focus sedan. We liked the looks of the 2014 Focus, and the updates for 2015 only improve things to our eyes, with the adoption of the Aston Martin-inspired grille that has been permeating Ford's lineup these last few years. Sweeping, slightly bulbous headlamps join a revised, more demure lower grille opening to round out the styling updates up front. The rest of the car's look is just slightly massaged, including new taillamp clusters that look much like they did last year.
New for 2015 is the availability of Ford's 1.0-liter three-cylinder EcoBoost engine, mated exclusively to a six-speed manual transmission. There's also a new SE Sport Package that adds more aggressive suspension tuning, paddle shifters (when equipped with Ford's six-speed dual-clutch automatic) and a few body kit bits and pieces. Rounding out the mechanical changes are an updated electronic steering rack that promises better feel, suspension tweaks to make the ride more comfortable and some software updates designed to make the dual-clutch gearbox better behave itself.
In addition, inside there are a few interior upgrades, as well as some added comfort and safety tech that includes available blind-spot detection and lane-keeping assist, along with other more incremental changes that all add up to a better vehicle. We suggest you check out the official press release below for all the details, but not before scrolling through our image gallery of live shots above.

Ken Block rally cars go blue in the face (and everywhere else)

Wed, 23 Jan 2013

Well at least we now know why Ken Block "just ain't care" about smashing up his Ford Fiesta rally car recently. It's because he's getting a full brand makeover including a new team name, new paint scheme and even a new headquarters. Formerly known as Monster World Rally Team, Block and his Fiesta will now be competing under the Hoonigan Racing Division name, which is based out of a new 12,000 square foot facility located in Park City, UT.
As you can tell in the image above, Hoonigan Racing will replace the familiar black, white and green paint scheme with a more colorful design featuring plenty of blue, purple and red; the Monster Energy logo retains some of the car's green. The new paint scheme was inspired by Block's love of skateboard graphics from the '80s and early '90s as well as "Miami Vice-era" speedboats.
Block will continue to compete in multiple rally racing series such as Global RallyCross, World Rally Championship and X Games. The new headquarters features office space on one side and a shop for the cars on the other side. The building features plenty of stuff you'd expect from a company designed around Ken Block, including a massive gaming station for racing video games, recycled shipping containers used throughout the facility and a black bear.

Ken Block's 1965 Ford Mustang Hoonicorn RTR and CR Supercars Villain are retro done right

Wed, 05 Nov 2014

Gymkhana king Ken Block has had a pretty simple car history in his trademark videos, starting out with Subaru Impreza rally cars before moving into Ford Focus racers for the past four installments. His next video, though, Gymkhana Seven, kind of goes back in time.
Rather than the cutting-edge rally racers of past videos, Block will pilot a heavily modified 1965 Ford Mustang, called the Hoonicorn. How heavily modified is it? Well, Block's Hooligan Racing Division, ASD Motorsports and Vaughn Gittin Jr.'s RTR, spent two years working on it, ditching the standard engine and rear-wheel-drive layout and replacing it with a 410-cubic-inch Roush Yates V8. Yes, that's a NASCAR engine, and it produces 845 horsepower.
A NASCAR-powered Mustang would be news in itself, but it's the other powertrain changes made by Block and Co. that really makes headlines. Power is channeled through a one-off Sadev transmission and all-wheel-drive system, meaning that Block has basically married a NASCAR stock car with a WRC racer. ASD also developed the customized suspension, tubular chassis and roll cage. The wide Mustang body is the work of RTR and Block's own Hoonigan Racing Division, while the 18-inch fifteen52 wheels are shod in Pirelli Trofeo R tires that use a specialized compound exclusive to Block.
